A buffer solution is made by mixing a weak acid HA (Ka = 10–6) with its salt NaA in equal amounts. What should be the amount of acid or salt that should be added to make 90 ml of buffer solution of buffer capacity. 0.1 ?

Explanation

For buffer capacity of 0.1 we should have c+0.1c0.1 = 10

where is concentration of weak acid or salt in the buffer solution

So,c + 0.1 = 10 c – 1so9c = 1.1or c = 1.19

So, moles required for 90 solution = 1.19 × 90 × 10–3 moles = 11 milli moles.

A sample of water has a hardness expressed as 80 ppm of Ca2+. This sample is passed through an ion exchange column and the Ca2+ is replaced by H+. What is the pH of the water after it has been so treated? [Atomic mass of Ca = 40]

Explanation

106 ml water contains 80 gm of Ca2+ = 8040moles = 2 moles of Ca2+ = 2 × 2 moles of H+ ions so 103 ml of H2O will have = 4 × 10–3 moles of H+ ions

so pH = 3 – log 4 = 3 – 0.6 = 2.4. 

In the reaction COCl2(g) CO(g) + CI2(g) at 550°, when the initial pressure of CO & Cl2 are 250 and 280 mm of Hg respectively. The equilibrium pressure is found to be 380 mm of Hg. Calculate the degree of dissociation of COC12 at 1 atm. What will be the extent of dissociation, when N2 at a pressure of 0.4 atm is present and the total pressure is 1 atm.

Explanation

       CoCl2 (g) CO(g) + Cl2 (g)

I.Pr       –                   250        280

Eq.pr    x                   250–x     280–x

x + 250 – x + 280 – x = 380

x = 150

Kp = 0.114

Kp = PCO×PCl2PCOCl2

Kp = α2.p1α2

0.114 = α2.11α2

In presence of N2 (constant pressure process)

Kp = α2×0.61α2

0.114 = α2×0.61α2

α = 0.1150.715

α = 0.4

α–increases from 0.32 to 0.4. 

What is the value of pKb (CH3COOH) if λm = 390 & λm = 7.8 for 0.04 of a CH3COOH at 25°C

Explanation

α=λm/λm=7.8/390=0.02Ka=Lα2=0.04(0.02)2=1.6×10-51-α is neglected because CH3COOH = weak electrolytePkb=14-Pka=14-[-logka]Pkb=14-[-log(1.6×10-5)]Pkb=14-4.79=4.20

Assertion : It is difficult to distinguish the strengths of the strong acids such as

                  HCl, H2SO4, HNO3, HBr, Hl or HClO4 in dilute aqueous solutions.

Reason : In dilute aqueous solution all strong acids donate a proton to water and are essentially.

               100% ionised to produce a solution containing H3O+ ions plus the anions of strong acid.

Explanation

(A)  All are strong a = 1 (leveling effect).

Assertion : 0.20 M solution of NaCN is more basic than 0.20 M solution of NaF.

Reason : 0.20 M solution of NaCN  is more basic than 0.20 M solution of CH3COONa.

(B)  CN- is more basic than F-          KaHCN<KaHF

       CN- is more basic than CH3COO-      KaHCN<KaCH3COOH

Assertion: A substance that can either act as an acid or a base is called ampholyte.

Reason: Bisulphide ion HS- and bicarbonate ion HCO3- are ampholytes.

(B) Ampholyte ion can undergo hydrolysis as well as ionization.

The most suitable method of separation of 1:1 mixture of ortho and para-nitrophenols is

Explanation

(d) Steam distillation is used to purify the substances which

(i) are volatile in steam but are immiscible with water.

(ii) possess sufficiently high vapour pressure at the boiling point of water.

(iii) contain non- volatile impurities.

The process of steam distillation can also be used to separate a mixture of two organic compounds one of which is steam volatile while the other is not. In ortho and para-nitrophenols, the latter is non-volatile, hence they are separated by steam distillation.

5mL of NHCl, 20 mL of N/2 H2SO4 and 30mL of N/3 HNO3 are mixed together and volume made one litre. The normality of the resulting solution is:

Explanation

(d) M eq. of HCl = 5 x1 =5;

M eq. of H2SO4 = 20 x (1/2) = 10;

M eq.of HNO3 = 30 x (1/3) =10;

Thus, total M eq. of acid = 5+10+10=25

Total volume = 1000mL

Also M eq. = N x V,

N = 25/1000=1/40
